That is precisely what my point is. If every BMP entity bean has to have an
ejbFindByPrimaryKey method, should'nt this be a method on the EntityBean
interface. (Maybe we need a BMPEntityBean class).
I am saying this because from a container's point, even though the container
knows that it is dealing with a BMP entity bean, it cannot do something like
:
EntityBean bean;
.........
bean.ejbFindByPrimaryKey(...)
It will need to use reflection to get the find method and invoke it.
Thanks.
